My Little Sister Is a Hopeless Romantic

Shen Chenbi’s face was almost excessively beautiful. Her skin was as smooth as congealed fat, her eyes held the luster of autumn waters, and the moment she stood somewhere, she looked like a painting.

And so, come rain or shine, she squatted outside the government office with her hands clasped and an expression of utmost piety. When Shen Wenyu discovered that her sister’s hands had been stuffed full of “warding-off-evil charms” by Pei Zhuo, she was so furious that her vision went black— For written on the charms in vigorous calligraphy were the name and birth details of a certain lord.
